Best Looking Forward To It Poems


The Trouble With Dying, Is That We Forget To Live
I'm deeply trouble and that maybe saying it mildly.  Of all the war's of the world, 
"World of War's", to what's been proven?  I can not comprehend.  Cann't wait to
Kill someone, "the rise and fall of mankind causes such a seperation, that...

Goodness, I nearly lost my balance on the spiral seashells and broken sea stone chipping matrix.
My quaint obsession with marine life and that skyline paradox blossoming so tantalisingly,  might be a source of some unfortunate accident.
“Be careful, Hunter.”
A dramatic otherworldly start to our long...

Derby Reminiscing About a Day Fishing
Got up at four
Scored some fresh bait the night before
Boat and tackle are loaded offshore
Going derby fishing at the reservoir
Needing to stop at the store
For some beverages ice and more

This is coming together so nice
Been looking forward to it for nights
Even got in a fight...

Promises
I made a promise once
If you can win a promise
I won
This promise broke my heart
Shattered it
It's in my body in shards 
Floating around
I move slightly 
It pierces my organs
Unforgivingly

This promise will be the death of me
And I can't wait
I'm looking forward to it

This promise was...

Unanswered Recovery.
These Last Few Years Have Been Hectic,
My Life Is Still A Wreck,
Ima Patient In Recovery Trying To Get Back On My Feet,
So Many Things Have Happened These Past 2 Years,
I Reminisce As I Weap,
I Just Wish I Could Just Take A Big Leap,
But It Aint...

Another New Year
Expect a new threat
Accept a new scare
Confect some more fears

Just Another New Year
Brings  much added debt
With less on our checks
Plus increases to our rent
Resulting in much stress

Just Another New Year
Calls for another celebration
But I ain’t celebrating
When potential for war is escalating
Rogue states...

Premium Member Vacate To the Vacation
I may as well concede the obvious. I was an incorrigible workaholic,
Who was always so driven to succeed, that working replaced all frolic.

I was the co-owner of a business, along with my lifelong best friend.
Together we'd worked our way up, as the burnt sunset hues...

Ghost of the Future
No eerie echo penetrates the night
behind a moon-swept hill that lies
far distant from my sight.
There is no apparition on the mystic plain,
but there he is, inside a place
that time and space may not contain.     

We await each other
since he left his...

Premium Member My Paradox
I was once sent back in time to my newly assigned starship.
I was sent back to prevent the destruction of it.
Someone had planted a bomb hidden somewhere within it,
that would blow five years after with my crew and me in it.
My job was to go...

Rain
September dripped hot winds
through the screen door.
The floor sticky from the
slap, slap, of bare feet on tile
parading back and forth
to the fridge for ice.
The dog hides in shadows,
side plastered to the cool 
sticky tile, tongue limp
and touching the floor.
I expect him to rise slowly
and be...

Moving Forward
Just when I think I'm on top of 
things
I try and fly but realize I've got 
no wings 
I pick my self up and push 
forward 
Never looking back as its to 
awkward 
Positive thinking along the way 
Knowing that I'm not going a 
stray 
God is watching with each...

What's in store for the next thirty years
Not looking forward to it it's a future to fear 
I'm from the old school
Interaction was the rule
These days it's so impersonal it brings me to tears...

Father
I used to wonder

What you sounded like

What you looked like

Why you weren’t here

For so long, 

I thought my punishment from God for all the wrong I was GONNA do, was your absence.

I wondered if I were simply a mistake of two teenagers who didn’t know...

Premium Member An Unexpected Journey
It had been twenty-five years since I had seen you last,
So stopping by unexpectedly was lots of fun.
We talked a little bit about people from the past
And some of the things that, since then, both of us had done.

I'm not sure what brought me here...

Premium Member Me and Trampolines
Polite trampoline jumping
Keeping my shirt down.
Not wearing a dress unless I have shorts
to cover my panties

Unbelievable trampoline jumping
Terrific when I was a child
Until I lied and said I could do a flip
And I burst my nose open on the trampoline springs

Refused to do trampoline jumping
When...
